[@barbarahalkyard1901]

Watching this shows. How many people loved and cared about you Rob. Rest in peace.And my sincere condolences to your family. You will be sadly missed.❤

[@JLSGamingYT]

No mater what life is throwing at him, he's still smiling away. What a legend.

[@roseyk7677]

James speaks like a leader, he is so eloquent and a beautiful oratory speaker. Seriously, goosebumps covered my whole body when he recited the love and friendship he has for his club, team mates and Rob..... What a humble legend he is. Imagine having that human being propping you up with such emotional self awareness and kindness every day. I'm sure Rob felt like a giant amongst those lads. They are indeed a pride of lions, resilient, stoic and fierce in love and fortitude. Even the presenters appeared more real on that sofa than they have ever been. That's the magic of energy and integrity right there! James, you are a truly authentic human being, may God Bless you 🙏❤️🙏

[@MrKelso85]

Impossible not to cry, and gives me strength as I battle chronic illness! Love you Rob always been a fan! Was very close to being good enough to playing against you!

[@davewilson9738]

A serious fcuking legend. Loved to watch him and that Leeds team play - even is a Wigan supporter. Beep beep RB.

[@jonnyboyj]

Rob's inspirational and JJB's a great ambassador for RL. The lady commentator's reaction at the very very end is wonderful.

[@jamesnield]

I was a Union player, and Rob was one I used to watch and think, "I'm glad I don't have to play against him!!". He was amazing on the pitch and such a top bloke off it. A credit to Rugby.

[@mrfrisky2997]

JJB was amazing here!

RIP a good man

[@johnpower29]

JJB was tremendous here

[@TherymasterWidnes]

Keep going Rob!

[@bderek136]

Being an ex RL pro, from the 80,s Playing for wigan, Leigh and Widnes i I only came across a Video of Leeds on you tube last month, i was amazed by this small scrumhalf of his brilliant speed, Heart and determination. I was involved with some of the greatest players ever, but Rob must be the best player i have seen alongside Ellery, Edwards, Billy Wizz. The Leeds team at that time of winning was most likely the closest ever. I hope they create a statue of Rob at the stadium to celebrate an amazing career and personality whom defeated all odds on the playing Field.

[@roseyk7677]

Well said, and I agree about the statue, I believe they absolutely will.... James was right, Rob is a legend and his presence is massive!

[@kozmokramer7398]

Best english rugby league player

[@RIPSIRJIMMYSAVILLE]

im not a rugby fan but gutted to see him come out in a wheelchair wish him all the luck in the world and hope he has many many years to come

[@stevenclark1973]

Brilliant interview. Respect.... ynwa

[@davidedwards4569]

Saints fan, love you Rob x

[@hasos5577]

WOW,how your life can change in 18 months😔

[@peekaboo4903]

Hes such a lovely man. I care for people with MND and they all have done high impact sport.. karate and ruby are usually the 2main, Has anyone else noticed this?

[@roseyk7677]

There's serious investigation into this, I remember years ago working in sport and hearing on the grapevine that there was a possible link to the central nervous system damage from body contact sports, and the impact it has on nerves and brain responses. So many people dont want to speak out about it because they don't want to damage the reputation of these great sports however, I truly believe it needs more attention for sure. God Bless you in your career, it takes a person with great compassion to do the job you do 🙏

[@peekaboo4903]

@Rosey K thankyou. Both whom I cared for one did karate, and one did rugby both said they believe it was the hard impact sport that created their diseases. I think it is linked x

[@TiaPetaia]

Aye??? What happened to Rob?? Havent followed Super League in years.

[@jamesshaw4272]

he's got motor neuron disease, life is shit sometimes

[@TiaPetaia]

@@jamesshaw4272 no way. Sad to hear. Always gave us (NZ) a good run for our money.

[@a93-m6b]

He's on a new drug his dad found on the internet and is doing well on it by all accounts, I hope his dad or someone he knows does some research on CBD oil, and Rick Simpson oil, it could be benificial to rob as it slows down glutamate, CBD oil which is derived from the "cannabis sativa" plant, is particularly good for mnd!

[@davidedwards4569]

Saints fan, love you Rob x
